Lyrics

[Intro] Let's celebrate, yeah-yeah Yeah, yeah, oh Let's celebrate, yeah [Verse 1] It's been a long time since I've seen you, baby Then your call came across my telephone You said that old friends are meeting "Will you come up, maybe?" I said, "I'll try to make it" You left me talking to a tone, yeah [Chorus 1] Ten years didn't seem so long Has it been that long, baby? Has it been that long since I've gone? [Verse 2] Many days and nights have passed Since I've seen you, mama So many things have passed our eyes, yeah A ring has come and gone From my finger, baby I've stumbled, fallen down And yes, I've even cried [Chorus 2] It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby Since I've promised you the moon Yeah, yeah, yeah It's been that long since I've whispered (Since I've whispered in your ear) in your ear, baby Let's celebrate now that we're home [Bridge] You're a memory (you're a memory) From the past (from the past) That'll always last (you'll always last, yeah) But life goes on (life goes on) But it's been so long, baby (so long) Oh, it's been so long (so long, so long) Oh, it's been so long (so long) Ten years don't seem so long Ten years, ten years, ten years, ten years [Verse 3] I think about the past It's gone away so fast I'm still the same human being I've traveled many miles And all just the while I've learned about the things I've seen, yeah [Chorus 2] It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby Since I've promised you the moon Yeah, yeah, yeah It's been that long since I've whispered sweet in your ear Let's celebrate now that we're home Yeah, yeah, yeah [Refrain] It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby Since I've promised you the moon It's been that long since I've whispered in your ear Maybe I'll call ya or just sing a song
